Understanding the legal concept of freedom of the seas is essential, which is vital in controlling rising piracy. In the absence of borders, the seas’ differentiation is done on territorial and non-territorial waters. Non-territorial waters include the open seas where ships can navigate without restrictions while moving from one port to another. Moreover, ships can engage in activities like fishing, conducting scientific research, exploring, laying pipelines, trading, and other harmless activities. All this is possible because the countries respect the need to enjoy freedom in moving across the seas. Controlling piracy on the high seas has become a global problem, and the United Nations has passed several anti-piracy resolutions to restrict it.
